Product Description:

These edge bands are made of genuine wood with a fleece back and without glue, adhesive, or finish. 

These Bands are clipped parallel.

Generally, edge bands cover the edges (sides) of panels such as MDF, Plywood, Particle boards, etc...

This way, once laminated with veneers on both faces and edge bands on four sides, the base material will no longer be seen, thus rendering the aspect of a solid wood panel.

Edge bands may also be used for furniture or door edges.

Edge bands are easy to glue, like face veneers, either with traditional white wood glue or neoprene glue.

The Species:

Common name: Oak, French oak, European Oak.

Botanical Name:

- Quercus petraea (Sessile oak).

- Quercus robur (Pedunculate oak).

The Sessile oak and the Pedunculate oak are the main species that make up the northern French oak groves, with some rare Pubescent oak, but this remains anecdotal.

We will notify the Holm Oak and the Cork Oak in the southern part.

They are traditionally used for building frames, shipbuilding, cooperage, cabinetmaking, carpentry, and everyday objects.

Considered in France as the noble wood par excellence, it is the Druids' sacred tree and the tree under which Saint Louis rendered justice.

It is especially very present in the state forests whose organization and forestry are due to Colbert, minister of Louis XIV, who wanted a powerful navy and, therefore, many oak groves well organized in sustainable renewal. However, Colbert could not foresee that 250 years later, by the time the trees were mature, warships would no longer be made of wood.

Oak is a very tannic wood, and it is the name of the oak in Gallic "tann," which will give tanner, tanner, tannin, etc. The tannin of the oak has been used since antiquities to tan the skins. Tannin also develops woody flavors in the wine and accentuates its red color.
